Robin Bouchard just might be getting on one of his patented hot streaks.

It’s one of those streaks where he carries the team for a week or two. He’s done it before and it just might be happening again.

Bouchard scored three goals and added one assist Friday in the Muskegon Lumberjacks’ 6-3 victory over the Flint Generals in a game witnessed by 2,569 spectators at L.C. Walker Arena. In Wednesday’s victory at Port Huron, Bouchard had two goals.

Bouchard leads the league in scoring with 21 points. He’s among the league leaders in goals and assists. And he’s scored three game-winning goals.

Oh, and the Lumberjacks have won four in a row.

“We’re playing well, we’ve been practicing well and we just have to keep going the same way,” said Bouchard, whose night ended a bit early after he got jumped by Flint’s Tyler Willis.Bouchard shrugged it off as Willis being his typical self.

“He’s a thirty-something year old guy trying to keep his job,” said Bouchard. “Maybe he should have thought about doing that a bit earlier.”

In the early going, Muskegon jumped on Flint for two goals before the game was 10 minutes old. David Rohlfs and Bouchard scored at 5:25 and 9:21, respectively, of the opening period. Rohlfs’ goal was the first of four power-play goals scored by the Lumberjacks.

The Generals got on the board with a shorthanded penalty shot goal by John Mori, who was hooked down on a breakaway by Lumberjack captain Todd Robinson.

Flint tied the game by the midpoint of the middle period. Bouchard scored a power-play goal at 2:49 before former NHLer Bryan Smolinski scored at 6:08 and 11:09.

Bouchard completed his hat trick at 19:00 and the Jacks took a 4-3 lead into the final period.

Travis Banga scored a power-play goal at the 55-second mark and John DiPace stole the puck and scored an unassisted goal at 15:25 to complete the scoring.

“I liked most of our game tonight,” said Lumberjack coach Rich Kromm, whose team received four points from Bouchard, but Todd Robinson (three assists) and DiPace (one goal, three assists) also made significant contributions. “We did put ourselves in a bit of penalty trouble and they were able to capitalize.”

And tie the game. But the Jacks responded with the game’s final three goals, including two more on the power play.

“The power play was very effective tonight,” said Kromm, whose team will practice today then host Fort Wayne at 5 p.m. Sunday.

Goaltender Sebastien Centomo, who spent Wednesday on recall to the American Hockey League’s Grand Rapids Griffins, faced 20 shots and stopped 17. He improved his record to 4-3-1.

Flint goaltender Rob Nolan, who came into the game with an 0-3 record and a league-leading 2.20 goals-against average, allowed six goals on 34 shots. In his previous three starts, the Generals scored just two goals.
